Having a mainstream moment

Contrary to my popular belief, not everyone likes weird cards.

So every so often I am challenged to create a mainstream card

for family birthdays and special occasions.

I adore this image called, Retro Girl 3. 

I am a huge fan of Torico (of Birdie Brown), who now designs exclusively 

for My Favorite Things. She used to sell her images on Etsy, 

but unfortunately, she closed her shop when things picked up at MFT.

Glad I stocked up on her digital art when I had the chance. 

I made this card for my SIL. I colored her to resemble Dana, too.

She has three boys under 12, so I imagined her sitting alone and 

enjoying a cup of tea/coffee for her birthday. 

I bet she imagines that scenario as well. 

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:

Papertake Weekly - Anything Goes/Summer

TTCRD- Anything Goes

Try it on Tuesdays - Feminine and Fancy

Love to Create - Birthday

Crafty Hazelnut - Use patterned paper

Thanks for dropping by today.

Hope I didn't frighten my creepier fiends with this one.

The darkness shall return momentarily.....
